Abstract (en)
An apparatus for generating a spatialized audio output based on a listener position, the apparatus comprising means configured to: obtain two or more audio signal sets, wherein each of the two or more audio signal sets is associated with a respective audio signal set position; obtain a listener position within an audio environment, wherein the audio environment comprises one or more area having one or more inside and outside regions in relation to the respective audio signal set positions, wherein the inside region is defined by the respective audio signal set positions; obtain, for at least two of the two or more audio signal sets, metadata based on a processing of the at least two audio signals of the at least two of the two or more audio signal sets; determine, for the listener position within an audio environment outside the inside region, a second listener position, the second listener position being located in the outside region and closer towards a boundary of the one or more inside and outside region, or on the boundary, or within the one or more inside region; determine modified metadata for the second listener position based on the metadata; determine at least two modified audio signals for the second listener position based on the at least two audio signals; determine spatial metadata for the listener position based on the modified metadata for the second listener position; and output the at least two modified audio signals and the spatial metadata.
